Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of electronic circuit technology, and in particular relates to a dimming circuit and lighting device for a multi-segment light-emitting diode. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of LED lighting technology, LED lighting has become ubiquitous in all aspects of life, and the requirements for LED lighting usage are increasingly stringent in various regions. Existing constant current drive technology struggles to meet the diverse requirements for power factor (PF), total harmonic distortion (THD), and dimming methods across different regions. This is particularly true for multi-segment LED low-brightness dimming, where poor linearity and uneven surface light source uniformity remain unresolved. For example, when driving multi-segment LEDs, existing constant current drive products, when the grid voltage is switched to a level lower than the driving voltage of the last segment of the LED array, only the last segment turns off, while the remaining segments remain on. As the grid voltage continues to decrease, multiple segments turn off sequentially, resulting in poor surface light source uniformity. Conversely, directly turning off all segments when the switched grid voltage approaches the driving voltage of the last segment of the LED array fails to achieve linear brightness changes. Therefore, further research is needed to fill the technological gaps in multi-segment LED low-brightness dimming. Utility Model Content

[0058] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 To be continued Figure 7 This embodiment provides a detailed description of a dimming circuit for a multi-segment light-emitting diode.

[0059] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the connection structure of a dimming circuit for a multi-segment light-emitting diode provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 1 In this circuit, the dimming circuit 1 of the multi-segment light-emitting diode includes: a power output circuit 10, a full-segment light-emitting diode LED 20, an LED dimming circuit 40, and an LED constant current drive circuit 50.

[0060] Specifically, the entire LED segment 20 comprises multiple sub-segments LED20-i (where i represents the sequence number of the sub-segment LED, i = 1, 2, 3, ...). That is, the entire LED segment 20 is composed of multiple sub-segments of LEDs, and each sub-segment of LEDs consists of multiple LED beads. For example... Figure 1In this embodiment, the entire LED segment 20 can include three sub-segments: sub-segment LED20-1, sub-segment LED20-2, and sub-segment LED20-3. Each sub-segment uses multiple LED beads. For example, assuming sub-segment LED20-1 includes eight 9V LED beads, sub-segment LED20-2 includes five 9V LED beads, and sub-segment LED20-3 includes two 9V LED beads, then the entire LED segment 20 includes a total of 15 9V LED beads. In practical applications, the number of sub-segments in the entire LED segment, the number of LED beads in each sub-segment, and the operating voltage of each LED bead can be adjusted according to actual conditions; this embodiment does not impose specific limitations on these aspects.

[0061] Figure 1 In this circuit, the power output circuit 10 is connected to the positive terminal of the entire LED 20 segment, providing power to the entire LED 20 segment and thus outputting the grid voltage value VAC_CUT. The grid voltage value VAC_CUT can be the power supply voltage provided by the power output circuit 10, which is either rectified or tangentially rectified.

[0062] The first input terminal of the LED dimming circuit 40 is connected to the input terminal of the power output circuit 10, and the second input terminal of the LED dimming circuit 40 is connected to the negative terminal of the entire LED 20. This is used to sample the grid voltage value VAC_CUT and the voltage difference V0 of the entire LED 20, outputting the thyristor control signal value V3 and the dimming voltage value Vref, respectively. The first output terminal of the LED dimming circuit 40 is connected to the first input terminal of the LED constant current drive circuit 50, and the second output terminal of the LED dimming circuit 40 is connected to the second input terminal of the LED constant current drive circuit 50, inputting the dimming voltage value Vref and the thyristor control signal value V3 into the LED constant current drive circuit 50, respectively. The voltage difference V0 is the voltage difference between the positive and negative terminals of the entire LED 20. The thyristor control signal value V3 is used to determine whether to turn the thyristor discharge circuit 51 in the LED constant current drive circuit 50 on or off. In other words, when the grid voltage is detected to be tangentially switched by the SCR, the output SCR control signal value V3 is greater than 0, and the SCR discharge circuit in the LED constant current drive circuit is turned on to provide discharge current; when the grid voltage is detected to be untangentially switched by the SCR, the output SCR control signal value V3 is 0, and the SCR discharge circuit in the LED constant current drive circuit is in the off state. The dimming voltage value Vref is used to provide a constant current for each LED segment 20-i, especially when the grid voltage is tangentially switched at a small angle, it can slowly reduce the brightness of the LED segment according to different tangential angles.

[0063] The first input terminal of the LED constant current drive circuit 50 is connected to the first output terminal of the LED dimming circuit 40, acquiring the dimming voltage value Vref output by the LED dimming circuit 40; the second input terminal of the LED constant current drive circuit 50 is connected to the second output terminal of the LED dimming circuit 40, acquiring the thyristor control signal value V3 output by the LED dimming circuit 40; the fourth input terminal of the LED constant current drive circuit 50 is connected to the negative terminal of each sub-segment LED20-i, acquiring the voltage difference value of each sub-segment LED20-i; the output terminal of the LED constant current drive circuit 50 is connected to the output terminal of the power output circuit 10. The fourth input terminal of the LED constant current drive circuit 50 includes multiple interfaces, which can be connected to multiple segments of LED20-i respectively. Figure 1 In the circuit, the voltage value corresponding to the negative terminal of sub-segment LED20-1 is V_LED1, the voltage value corresponding to the negative terminal of sub-segment LED20-2 is V_LED2, and the voltage value corresponding to the negative terminal of sub-segment LED20-3 is V_LED3, which are respectively connected to the corresponding ports in the fourth input terminal of the LED constant current drive circuit 50.

[0064] The LED constant current drive circuit 50 provides a constant current to each sub-segment LED 20-i based on the dimming voltage value output by the LED dimming circuit 40, and determines whether to turn on or off the thyristor discharge circuit 51 in the LED constant current drive circuit 50 based on the thyristor control signal value output by the LED dimming circuit 40.

[0065] It is understood that the dimming circuit of the multi-segment light-emitting diode provided in the embodiments of this application can effectively improve the linearity of low-brightness dimming while ensuring constant luminous flux, high power factor (PF), and low total harmonic distortion (THD) when the silicon controlled rectifier is tangentially at a large angle.

[0066] In the optional solutions of this embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the connection structure of a dimming circuit for a multi-segment light-emitting diode provided in another embodiment of this application. Figure 2 In the dimming circuit 1 of the multi-segment light-emitting diodes, there is also an LED constant current judgment circuit 30.

[0067] The input terminal of the LED constant current judgment circuit 30 is connected to the negative terminal of the entire LED 20 segment, and the output terminal of the LED constant current judgment circuit 30 is connected to the third input terminal of the LED constant current drive circuit 50. This circuit determines whether the voltage flowing through the entire LED 20 segment is less than the total lamp segment voltage and outputs a judgment result value V4. The third input terminal of the LED constant current drive circuit 50 is connected to the output terminal of the LED constant current judgment circuit 30, and the judgment result value V4 output by the LED constant current judgment circuit 30 is collected. Based on the judgment result value output by the LED constant current judgment circuit 30, the LED constant current drive circuit 50 can determine whether to simultaneously turn off the SCR discharge circuit and the entire LED 20 segment. It should be noted that when the voltage difference V0 across the entire LED 20 segment is less than the required total lamp segment voltage, the judgment result value V4 is the target result value. In this case, the grid voltage is tangentially oriented at a small angle, causing the entire LED 20 segment and the SCR discharge circuit 51 to turn off simultaneously. The total segment voltage value refers to the minimum voltage required to light up all the LEDs in the entire LED segment 20. Here, the target result value can be either high or low, depending on the actual logic circuit.

[0068] It is understood that the dimming circuit of the multi-segment light-emitting diode provided in the embodiments of this application can not only effectively improve the linearity of low-brightness dimming, but also effectively improve the uniformity of the surface light source, while ensuring that the luminous flux is constant, the power factor (PF) is high and the total harmonic distortion (THD) is low when the silicon controlled rectifier is tangential at a large angle.

[0069] In the optional solutions of this embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the connection structure of a dimming circuit for a multi-segment light-emitting diode provided in another embodiment of this application. Figure 3 In the LED dimming circuit 40, there are: a wire mesh detection circuit 41, an LED lamp voltage detection circuit 42, and an adaptive dimming reference circuit 43, wherein,

[0070] The wire mesh detection circuit 41 is connected to the input terminal of the power output circuit 10. It is used to determine whether the wire mesh voltage is tangent by the thyristor based on the wire mesh voltage value VAC_CUT, output the thyristor control signal value V3, and perform the first sampling processing on the wire mesh voltage value VAC_CUT to output the sampled voltage value V2.

[0071] The LED lamp voltage detection circuit 42 is connected to the input terminal of the power output circuit 10 and the negative terminal of the entire LED 20, respectively, and is used to perform a second sampling process on the voltage difference V0 of the entire LED 20 and output the voltage threshold V1 of the entire segment.

[0072] The adaptive dimming reference circuit 43 is connected to the LED lamp pressure detection circuit 42 and the wire mesh detection circuit 41 respectively. It is used to perform a linear comparison between the sampled voltage value V2 output by the wire mesh detection circuit 41 and the full-segment voltage threshold V1 output by the LED lamp pressure detection circuit 42, and output the dimming voltage value Vref.

[0073] Specifically, Figure 3 In the LED dimming circuit 40, there are wire mesh detection circuit 41, LED lamp pressure detection circuit 42 and adaptive dimming reference circuit 43.

[0074] The input terminal of the wire mesh detection circuit 41 is connected to the input terminal of the power output circuit 10. The second output terminal of the wire mesh detection circuit 41 (i.e., the second output terminal of the dimming circuit 40) is connected to the second input terminal of the LED constant current drive circuit. Based on the sampled wire mesh voltage value VAC_CUT, it determines whether the wire mesh voltage is directional by the thyristor and outputs the thyristor control signal value V3. The first output terminal of the wire mesh detection circuit 41 is connected to the first input terminal of the adaptive dimming reference circuit 43. It performs a first sampling process on the sampled wire mesh voltage value VAC_CUT and outputs a sampled voltage value V2. This sampled voltage value V2 is the input value of the adaptive dimming reference circuit 43.

[0075] It should be noted that when the grid voltage is detected to be shunted by the thyristor, the output thyristor control signal value V3 is greater than 0, and the thyristor discharge circuit 51 in the LED constant current drive circuit 50 is turned on to provide discharge current; when the grid voltage is detected not to be shunted by the thyristor, the output thyristor control signal value V3 is 0, and the thyristor discharge circuit 51 in the LED constant current drive circuit 50 is in the closed state.

[0076] The first input terminal of the LED lamp voltage detection circuit 42 (i.e., the first input terminal of the dimming circuit 40) is connected to the power input terminal of the power output circuit 10. The second input terminal of the LED lamp voltage detection circuit 42 (i.e., the second input terminal of the dimming circuit 40) is connected to the negative terminal of the entire LED 20. The output terminal of the LED lamp voltage detection circuit 42 is connected to the second input terminal of the adaptive dimming reference circuit 43. This circuit is used to perform a second sampling process on the entire voltage difference V0 of the entire LED 20, i.e., to detect the lamp segment voltage difference of the entire LED 20 connected to the system, thereby outputting different voltages to obtain the entire voltage threshold V1. This entire voltage threshold V1 is used as the threshold voltage for adjusting the dimming voltage value Vref and is input to the second input terminal of the adaptive dimming reference circuit 43.

[0077] It should be noted that when sampling the grid voltage, peak sampling and average sampling methods can be used. The first sampling process is a method of processing the sampled grid voltage value VAC_CUT to obtain the sampled voltage value V2. The second sampling process is a method of processing the sampled total LED voltage difference V0 to obtain the total voltage threshold V1. In this embodiment, the specific processing procedures of the first and second sampling processes are not limited, as long as the corresponding sampled voltage value V2 and total voltage threshold V1 are obtained.

[0078] The second input terminal of the adaptive dimming reference circuit 43 is connected to the output terminal of the LED lamp voltage detection circuit 42 to acquire the entire voltage threshold V1 output by the LED lamp voltage detection circuit 42; the first input terminal of the adaptive dimming reference circuit 43 is connected to the first output terminal of the wire mesh detection circuit 41 to acquire the sampled voltage value V2 output by the wire mesh detection circuit 41; and the sampled voltage value V2 and the entire voltage threshold V1 are linearly compared to output the dimming voltage value Vref; the output terminal of the adaptive dimming reference circuit 43 (i.e. the first output terminal of the dimming circuit 40) is connected to the first input terminal of the LED constant current drive circuit 50 to input the dimming voltage value Vref into the LED constant current drive circuit 50, thereby changing the input reference value of the LED constant current drive circuit 50. Especially when the wire mesh voltage is tangentially oriented at a small angle, it can slowly reduce the brightness of different LED segments according to different tangential angles.

[0079] For example, Figure 3 The circuit also includes a constant current resistor R6, through which the LED constant current drive circuit 50 is connected to the power output circuit. The output terminal of the constant current resistor R6 is grounded.

[0080] It should be noted that when the SCR control signal value V3 is 0, it indicates that the line voltage value VAC_CUT is not oriented by the SCR. When the SCR control signal value V3 is greater than 0, it indicates that the line voltage value VAC_CUT is oriented by the SCR. In this case, if the sampled voltage value V2 is less than the entire voltage threshold V1, it indicates that the line voltage value VAC_CUT is oriented at a small angle; if the sampled voltage value V2 is greater than or equal to the entire voltage threshold V1, it indicates that the line voltage value VAC_CUT is oriented at a large angle.

[0081] In the optional solutions of this embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the connection structure of an adaptive dimming reference circuit provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 4In the adaptive dimming reference circuit 43, there are: a linear comparator C1, a first power switch NMOS1, a first resistor R5, a second resistor R0 and multiple voltage divider resistors Rj (j represents the serial number of the voltage divider resistor, j = 1, 2, 3...).

[0082] The positive input terminal of linear comparator C1 is connected to the first output terminal of the wire detection circuit 41, and the negative input terminal of linear comparator C1 is connected to the output terminal of the LED lamp voltage detection circuit 42. It is used to perform linear comparison between the sampled voltage value V2 and the whole voltage threshold V1, and output the dimming current I1. The positive output terminal of linear comparator C1 is connected to the drain of the first power switch NMOS1 through the first resistor R5, and the negative output terminal of linear comparator C1 is connected to the gate of the first power switch NMOS1. The source of the first power switch NMOS1 is grounded. The input terminal of the first resistor R5 is connected to the clamping voltage VQ. The output terminal of the first resistor R5 is grounded after passing through the link formed by the second resistor R0 and multiple voltage divider resistors Rj in series. The output terminals of the multiple voltage divider resistors Rj are respectively connected to the LED constant current driving circuit, and the multiple dimming voltage values ​​Vref output by the multiple voltage divider resistors Rj are respectively input to the LED constant current driving circuit 50.

[0083] Following the example above, such as Figure 4 In the diagram, each of the three sub-segments LED20-i (i.e., sub-segment LED20-1, sub-segment LED20-2, and sub-segment LED20-3) corresponds to a voltage divider resistor Rj (i.e., voltage divider resistor R1, voltage divider resistor R2, and voltage divider resistor R3), and the corresponding dimming voltage values ​​are Vref1, Vref2, and Vref3. The sampled voltage value V2 and the overall voltage threshold V1 serve as the positive and negative input terminals of the linear comparator C1, respectively connected to the grid detection circuit 41 and the LED lamp voltage detection circuit 42. The dimming current I1 flows entirely through the first resistor R5 and the first power switch NMOS1 to ground only when the sampled voltage value V2 is less than the overall voltage threshold V1; when the sampled voltage value V2 is greater than or equal to the overall voltage threshold V1, there is no dimming current I1. Similarly, the bias voltage Vbn is connected to the gate of the first power switch NMOS1 only when the sampled voltage value V2 is less than the overall voltage threshold V1, providing a bias voltage; when the sampled voltage value V2 is less than the overall voltage threshold V1, Vbn is 0.

[0084] The clamping voltage VQ is a fixed voltage. When the dimming current I1 flows through the first resistor R5, the dimming voltage values ​​Vref1, Vref2, and Vref3 decrease sequentially according to the voltage divider resistors R1, R2, and R3. The dimming voltage values ​​Vref1, Vref2, and Vref3 are then connected to the LED constant current drive circuit 50, and the current flowing through the constant current resistor R6 is Vref3 / R6 (or Vref2 / R6, Vref1 / R6).

[0085] In the optional solutions of this embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the number of voltage divider resistors Rj is the same as the number of sub-segments LED20-i in the entire LED 20 segment, and each voltage divider resistor Rj corresponds one-to-one with a sub-segment LED20-i. By dividing the dimming current through the voltage divider resistors Rj, the dimming voltage value Vref for different sub-segments LED20-i is obtained, thereby gradually reducing the brightness of the LED segment.

[0086] In the optional solutions of this embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the connection structure of an LED constant current driving circuit provided in one embodiment of this application. Figure 5 In the LED constant current drive circuit 50, there are: a second power switch NMOS2, a thyristor discharge circuit 51, and a constant current drive sub-circuit 52.

[0087] The input terminal of the thyristor discharge circuit 51 is connected to the second output terminal of the wire detection circuit 41, and the output terminal of the thyristor discharge circuit 51 is connected to the input terminal of the constant current resistor R6. This is used to judge the thyristor control signal value V3 and determine whether to turn the thyristor discharge circuit 51 on or off. The input terminal of the constant current drive sub-circuit 52 is connected to the output terminals of multiple voltage divider resistors Rj in the adaptive dimming reference circuit 43 and the negative terminal of each sub-segment LED20-i in the entire LED 20. The output terminal of the constant current drive sub-circuit 52 is connected to the input terminal of the constant current resistor R6, providing a constant current for each sub-segment LED20-i. The output terminal of the constant current resistor R6 is grounded. The gate of the second power switch NMOS2 is connected to the output terminal of the LED constant current judgment circuit 30, acquiring the judgment result value V4 output by the LED constant current judgment circuit 30. The drain of the second power switch NMOS2 is connected to the thyristor discharge circuit 51 and the constant current drive sub-circuit 52, and the source of the second power switch NMOS2 is grounded.

[0088] In the optional solutions of this embodiment, such as Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the connection structure of an LED constant current driving circuit provided in another embodiment of this application. Figure 6 In the circuit 51, the thyristor discharge circuit includes: discharge resistor R7, discharge amplifier AMP1, and discharge power switch NMOS3.

[0089] The positive input terminal of the bleeder amplifier AMP1 is connected to the second output terminal of the wire detection circuit 41 (i.e., the second output terminal of the dimming circuit 40) to acquire the thyristor control signal value V3 output by the wire detection circuit 41; the negative input terminal of the bleeder amplifier AMP1 is connected to the input terminal of the bleeder resistor R7; the output terminal of the bleeder amplifier AMP1 is connected to the gate of the bleeder power switch NMOS3 and the drain of the second power switch NMOS2 respectively; the drain of the bleeder power switch NMOS3 is connected to the input terminal of the power output circuit 10 to acquire the wire voltage value VAC_CUT); the source of the bleeder power switch NMOS3 is connected to the input terminal of the bleeder resistor R7; the output terminal of the bleeder resistor R7 is connected to the input terminal of the constant current resistor R6.

[0090] When the grid voltage is detected to be switched by the thyristor, the output thyristor control signal value V3 is greater than 0. The output terminal of the bleeder amplifier AMP1 is connected to the gate of the bleeder power switch NMOS3, and current flows through the bleeder resistor R7, thus turning on the thyristor bleeder circuit 51 and providing bleeder current. When the grid voltage is detected not to be switched by the thyristor, the output thyristor control signal value V3 is 0. The output terminal of the bleeder amplifier AMP1 is disconnected from the gate of the bleeder power switch NMOS3, and no current flows through the bleeder resistor R7, thus the thyristor bleeder circuit 51 is in the off state.

[0091] In the optional solutions of this embodiment, such as Figure 6 In the constant current drive sub-circuit 52, there are multiple dimming power switches NMOS-Tm (Tm represents the serial number of the dimming power switch, m = 1, 2, 3...) and multiple dimming amplifiers AMP-Tn (Tn represents the serial number of the dimming amplifier, n = 1, 2, 3...). The positive input terminals of the multiple dimming amplifiers AMP-Tn are respectively connected to the output terminals of the corresponding voltage divider resistors Rj in the adaptive dimming reference circuit 43. The negative input terminals of the multiple dimming amplifiers AMP-Tn are respectively connected to the input terminals of the constant current resistor R6. The output terminals of the multiple dimming amplifiers AMP-Tn are respectively connected to the gate of the corresponding dimming power switch NMOS-Tm and the drain of the second power switch NMOS2. The drains of the multiple dimming power switches NMOS-Tm are respectively connected to the negative terminals of the corresponding sub-segments LED20-i. The sources of the multiple dimming power switches NMOS-Tm are respectively connected to the input terminals of the constant current resistor R6.

[0092] Following the example above, Figure 6In the constant current drive sub-circuit 52, there are three dimming power switches, namely dimming power switches NMOS-T1, NMOS-T2, and NMOS-T3, and three dimming amplifiers, namely dimming amplifier AMP-T1, AMP-T2, and AMP-T3. The positive input terminal of the dimming amplifier AMP-T1 is connected to the output terminal of the corresponding voltage divider resistor R1 in the adaptive dimming reference circuit 43 to acquire the dimming voltage value Vref1. The negative input terminal of the dimming amplifier AMP-T1 is connected to the input terminal of the constant current resistor R6. The output terminal of the dimming amplifier AMP-T1 is connected to the gate of the dimming power switch NMOS-T1 and the drain of the second power switch NMOS2, respectively. The drain of the dimming power switch NMOS-T1 is connected to the negative terminal of the corresponding sub-segment LED20-1 to acquire the voltage value V_LED1 at the negative terminal of the sub-segment LED20-1. The source of the dimming power switch NMOS-T1 is connected to the input terminal of the constant current resistor R6.

[0093] Correspondingly, the positive input terminal of the dimming amplifier AMP-T2 is connected to the output terminal of the corresponding voltage divider resistor R2 in the adaptive dimming reference circuit 43 to acquire the dimming voltage value Vref2. The negative input terminal of the dimming amplifier AMP-T2 is connected to the input terminal of the constant current resistor R6. The output terminal of the dimming amplifier AMP-T2 is connected to the gate of the dimming power switch NMOS-T2 and the drain of the second power switch NMOS2, respectively. The drain of the dimming power switch NMOS-T2 is connected to the negative terminal of the corresponding sub-segment LED20-2 to acquire the voltage value V_LED2 at the negative terminal of the sub-segment LED20-2. The source of the dimming power switch NMOS-T2 is connected to the input terminal of the constant current resistor R6.

[0094] Correspondingly, the positive input terminal of the dimming amplifier AMP-T3 is connected to the output terminal of the corresponding voltage divider resistor R3 in the adaptive dimming reference circuit 43 to acquire the dimming voltage value Vref3. The negative input terminal of the dimming amplifier AMP-T3 is connected to the input terminal of the constant current resistor R6. The output terminal of the dimming amplifier AMP-T3 is connected to the gate of the dimming power switch NMOS-T3 and the drain of the second power switch NMOS2, respectively. The drain of the dimming power switch NMOS-T3 is connected to the negative terminal of the corresponding sub-segment LED20-3 to acquire the voltage value V_LED3 at the negative terminal of the sub-segment LED20-3. The source of the dimming power switch NMOS-T3 is connected to the input terminal of the constant current resistor R6. At this time, the current flowing through the constant current resistor R6 is Vref3 / R6 (or Vref2 / R6, Vref1 / R6).

[0095] It should be noted that when the voltage difference V0 of the entire LED 20 is less than the total lamp segment voltage required by the entire LED 20, that is, the grid voltage and current are insufficient to maintain the constant current of the entire LED segment, the judgment result value V4 is the target result value. At this time, the gate of the second power switch is disconnected, and the output current of the discharge amplifier AMP1, the dimming amplifier AMP-T1, the dimming amplifier AMP-T2 and the dimming amplifier AMP-T3 will be directly grounded, thus turning off the entire LED 20 and the thyristor discharge circuit 51 at the same time.

[0096] In the optional solutions of this embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 In the circuit, the power output circuit 10 includes: an AC power supply AC, a silicon controlled rectifier 11 (SCR) 11, and a rectifier bridge, wherein the SCR 11 is connected in series between the AC power supply AC and the rectifier bridge.

[0097] Specifically, the rectifier bridge includes a first diode D1, a second diode D2, a third diode D3, and a fourth diode D4. The rectifier bridge is formed by connecting a first link (consisting of the first diode D1 and the second diode D2 in series) and a second link (consisting of the third diode D3 and the fourth diode D4 in series) in parallel. The positive terminal of the AC power supply is connected to the input terminal of the thyristor 11, and the negative terminal of the AC power supply is connected to the cathode terminal of the third diode D3 in the rectifier bridge. The output terminal of the thyristor 11 is connected to the anode terminal of the second diode D2 in the rectifier bridge. The anode terminals of the first diode D1 and the third diode D3 in the rectifier bridge are connected to the output terminal of the LED constant current drive circuit 50. The cathode terminals of the second diode D2 and the fourth diode D4 in the rectifier bridge are connected to the positive terminal of the entire LED 20.

[0098] It should be understood that a rectifier bridge converts alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC), providing a stable DC power supply for electronic equipment (LED segments). A silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) is used to regulate the output voltage and current to reduce power loss in the power supply, increase output power, and extend the lifespan of the equipment.

[0099] In a specific embodiment, such as Figure 3 When the thyristor control signal value V3 is 0, it indicates that the line voltage value VAC_CUT is not tangent by the thyristor. At this time, the output full-segment voltage threshold V1 is fixed, no current flows through the discharge resistor R7, the thyristor discharge circuit 51 is closed, the sampled voltage value V2 is greater than the full-segment voltage threshold V1, the dimming voltage values ​​Vref1, Vref2, and Vref3 are fixed values, and the current flowing through the full LED is fixed.

[0100] When the SCR control signal value V3 is greater than 0, it indicates that the grid voltage value VAC_CUT is tangent by the SCR. At this time, current flows through the discharge resistor R7, and the SCR discharge circuit 51 is turned on. If the grid voltage value VAC_CUT is tangent at a large angle, and the sampled voltage value V2 is greater than or equal to the entire voltage threshold V1, then the dimming voltage values ​​Vref1, Vref2, and Vref3 are fixed values, and the current flowing through the entire LED is fixed.

[0101] When the SCR control signal value V3 is greater than 0, it indicates that the grid voltage value VAC_CUT is tangent by the SCR. At this time, current flows through the discharge resistor R7, and the SCR discharge circuit 51 is turned on. If the grid voltage value VAC_CUT is tangent at a small angle, and the sampled voltage value V2 is less than the overall voltage threshold V1, then the dimming voltage values ​​Vref1, Vref2, and Vref3 are variable values. The dimming current I1 is adjusted according to different sampled voltage values ​​V2 to change the dimming voltage values ​​Vref1, Vref2, and Vref3. Until the judgment result value V4 is the target result value (i.e., high level), it indicates that the cycle of the grid voltage value VAC_CUT has ended, and all LED segments are turned off, visually achieving the effect of linear dimming and simultaneous extinguishing of LED segments. For this situation, continuing from the above example, as follows... Figure 7 As shown, Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the low-brightness dimming result of a dimming circuit for a multi-segment light-emitting diode provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0102] Figure 7 The schematic diagram of the low-brightness dimming result of the multi-segment LED described in the figure corresponds to... Figure 3 The dimming circuit of the multi-segment light-emitting diodes described herein, Figure 3 In this example, the entire LED segment comprises three sub-segments, with a total of 15 9V LED beads. Therefore, the total segment voltage is 135V. Assuming the grid voltage VAC_CUT is switched to 145V, Vref3 is adjusted to Vref3_1, and the current I_R6 flowing through the constant current resistor R6 is Vref3_1 / R6. If the grid voltage VAC_CUT is switched to a lower 140V, Vref3 is adjusted to a smaller Vref3_2, and the current I_R6 flowing through the constant current resistor R6 also becomes Vref3_2 / R6. This process achieves low-brightness linear dimming, and in each cycle, when the total segment voltage is less than 135V, a simultaneous shutdown effect is achieved.

[0103] It should be understood that the dimming circuit for a multi-segment LED provided in this application can adjust the driving current of the entire LED segment based on whether the grid voltage is tangent by the thyristor and the tangent angle by detecting the voltage difference of the LED segments in the externally connected circuit. When the grid voltage is not tangent, the entire LED segment is driven by a constant current normally; when the grid voltage is tangent at a large angle, the thyristor discharge circuit is periodically turned off without affecting the constant current drive, thereby improving efficiency; when the grid voltage is tangent at a small angle, the dimming voltage value of the LED driving constant current is adaptively and linearly adjusted, and when the grid voltage value and current are detected to be insufficient to maintain the constant current, the entire LED segment is turned off, achieving the effect of simultaneous brightening and dimming of the LEDs, effectively improving the linearity of low-brightness dimming and the uniformity of the surface light source, and also has high integration and low cost.
